He Had It on His Mind
Roy Drusky · Country Special (Vocalion) [1971]
(Vic McAlpin - Roy Drusky)
(All the time he had it on his mind.)
I never thought he'd try to take you from me
A lifelong friend would never be that kind
He make believe that he could never want you
When all the time he had it on his mind.
He had it on his mind all the time
But kept telling me desire had made me blind
As a friend he couldn't see how I could love you
When all the time he had it on his mind.
--- Instrumental ---
To think of times I trusted you together
Now tomorrow the wedding bells will chime
To you and our best friend I'll be a stranger
Cause all the time he had it on his mind.
He had it on his mind all the time
But kept telling me desire had made me blind
As a friend he couldn't see how I could love you
When all the time he had it on his mind.
Yes, all the time he had it on his mind...
(All the time he had it on his mind.)
I never thought he'd try to take you from me
A lifelong friend would never be that kind
He make believe that he could never want you
When all the time he had it on his mind.
He had it on his mind all the time
But kept telling me desire had made me blind
As a friend he couldn't see how I could love you
When all the time he had it on his mind.
